Removed "Google Earth" entry

Item posted by toby cabot <toby> on Wed 27 May 2009 11:36:33 AM UTC.

We used to have a job posting for volunteers to make a Free Software replacement for Google Earth. This is now an FSF High Priority project (see http://www.fsf.org/campaigns/priority.html#gereplacment) so there's no longer a need to duplicate it on this task list.

From the high priority projects page: "Ways to help.Develop or improve a 3D rendering engine that reads KML files on par with Google Earth. Contribute to free map data services such as the Open Street Maps project, and contribute to geographical map programs such as Marble."
